| Comments: |
The trail was mostly packed out with a few little drifts at the top. The tower was open and accessible which was nice because otherwise the summit visit would have been very brief due to wind. the views were incredible! We wore our snowshoes car to top to car. One pair was bare booting and they chewed up the trail a bit, |
